STILL SINGLE

A space for thoughts on music and culture, as written by Doug Mosurock and a select handful of individuals. This is intended as a supplement to our regular feature Still Single, published on Dusted Magazine. Updates will run here more frequently, and may feature writing on music not covered in the column. Compact discs are still not accepted for review -- we have more than enough vinyl and the occasional cassette to worry about. Our Twitter feed keeps you apprised of reviews as they're published. It's kept locked and private, because with a name like @stillsingle, everyone thinks it's a dating site. Approvals happen whenever they happen.

Joe Kusy – Popcorn Salamander 7” EP (Founding Fathers)

Solo outing from Far-Out Fangtooth guitarist Kusy, here showing off a wildly indulgent side of his musical personality and away from the dark, pressurized howl of his main band. This is a bunch of bedroom/kitchen sink pop, glued together with epoxy and pipe cleaners, and with the tarnish of lo-fi production to match. What he’s playing sounds unfinished but vital, with the drive and mentality of the first 30 seconds of a kid set loose in a cotton candy factory. With some work – probably time, a recording budget, and some more thought – this could contend with some of the best out-there bands around. Think of this as a tiny, scarce little marker for the place he’ll go next. 50 numbered copies, and 300 of the regular press. (http://ffccrecords.blogspot.com)
